O que este vídeo aborda
Garrett and Ruth, sailing their home-built gaffer ketch *Red Aviva*, transit the Loretto National Park island group in the Sea of Cortez to reach the anchorage at Escondido.5:22 After nearly a year of full-time cruising, the crew practices heaving-to for the first time, finding the heavy, full-keel vessel locks in effectively with the mizzen set and a double-reefed staysail.9:54 The pair later leaves *Red Aviva* on a mooring in Escondido to drive to La Paz for crew logistics and provisioning.5:39 Upon returning, they depart Escondido on June 1st to avoid potential hurricane-season weather, opting to anchor in a nearby cove.16:40 Garrett executes the boat's first-ever anchoring under sail alone, using only the mainsail to maneuver into 20 feet of water.17:55 The crew notes that increased familiarity with the boat’s handling and balance has allowed them to sail more aggressively and experiment with maneuvers they previously avoided during their initial, cautious year of cruising.12:58
